With a new generation of fast and affordable gene sequencers, researchers are better equipped than ever to tackle Earth’s ...

Different teams need to make the same conclusion multiple times before a consensus is reached and the finding can be built ...

The cost of decoding our genetic makeup has plummeted. Just because it’s affordable doesn’t necessarily mean it’s worth doing ...

While modern octopuses have DNA that consistently gets reshuffled, resulting in some chromosomal mixing, the researchers ...

Different teams need to make the same conclusion multiple times before a consensus is reached and the finding can be ...

Genetic variants that cause rare disorders may remain elusive even after expansive testing, such as exome sequencing. The diagnostic yield of genome sequencing, particularly after a negative ...

DNA methylation is a highly studied epigenetic modification that is involved in regulating genome function and plays fundamental roles in development and disease. 1 It is linked to a broad range of ...

The rapid expansion of high-throughput sequencing technologies has generated unprecedented amounts of multi-omics data, ...

When cells proliferate, genomic DNA is precisely duplicated once per cell cycle. Abnormalities in this DNA replication ...
